Celebrity Rides: Burt Builds a Bandit

Legendary film star Burt Reynolds redesigns a muscle car that many find synonymous with Burt himself -- the Bandit Trans Am. The transformation begins with a finding an original Trans Am.

The guys at Year One strip the first donor car down to its bare bones, weeding out irreplaceable parts from the ones that'll be redesigned. Although the Bandit will pay respect to the original, Burt will leave his undeniable mark.

Phase two of the Bandit build begins, focusing on the modifications that'll bring this classic car into the modern muscle car world. Burt finalizes the details, and Year One moves ahead to bring the Trans Am back to life.

The final assembly begins on Burt's revamped Bandit Trans Am as the Year One team follows careful step-by-step procedures to make sure the car comes out in pristine condition.

The Burt Reynolds' Special Edition Trans Am is completed and ready for its reveal at the Year One Experience. After a positive reaction from the crowd, the Bandit is taken to Burt for the ultimate approval.
